Dr Joseph Chun is a leading authority in environmental law and the Head of the Firm’s Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practice. As the co-author of Singapore’s definitive environmental law textbook, he contributes to the standards of the field. His practice is uniquely informed by his role as an Adjunct Associate Professor at the National University of Singapore and a member of the Asia-Pacific Centre for Environmental Law.

Beyond his legal practice, Joseph is deeply embedded in the sustainability ecosystem, serving on SVCA’s ESG and Impact Committee, the Global Alliance of Impact Lawyers, and Mandai Wildlife Group’s Animal Welfare and Ethics Committee. His commitment to the environment extends from his membership of the IUCN World Commission on Environmental Law to hands-on collaboration with green civil society groups.
